Dataset Details

Hourly Andrews Forest data set for the WaterViz project. Waterviz is a water cycle visualization tool developed for the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest from 01-Oct-2017 to 01-Oct-2018

Abstract:

This collaboration between artists and scientists addresses this need for a new paradigm of engagement between the Arts and Sciences. The program is using insights from multiple disciplines to encode high volume and frequency ecological data in new ways in order to better discover underlying pattern and process. Specifically, online digital visualization and sonification tools are deployed to display multi-dimensional real-time ecological data generated from environmental sensor arrays deployed at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, NH. In a novel partnership with neuroscientists, the project will also explore how the stimulation of different neural circuitry in the human brain (visual and auditory attention and reasoning centers) may allow large and rapidly expanding datasets to be understood in different ways that lead to new discoveries about ecological processes. This project is intended as a case study to demonstrate how the full intellectual integration of Arts and Sciences can help to provide a deeper level of understanding about the environments we live and work in.| Taken from: https://scisoc.confex.com/scisoc/2015am/webprogram/Paper95219.html
